Thanks, may have to check if those will be legal over here. A$780 is a bit steep though.

The only other option I have seen is mounting a type 1 beam up to the type 3 frame head (usually done to run narrowed beams). Only way to get those drop spindles legal would be to buy 2 set, let your engineer test 1 set to destruction and use the other set.

I take it that swapping beams isn't as easy as it sounds.

Thanks for all the info. Found another story with some good pics:

I'm not sure chopping the bottom off the front frame horn is something I would undertake as a novice. I guess I'll just keep wrecking bump stops!
